Anybody out there that uses Sonicwall VPN ?

I'm not familiar with the Sonicewall VPN, but if it uses a stateless
protocol and if you are behind a NAT router, that can give you
problems because the connection gets flushed from the NAT table.

In that instance, an option (besides sending packets to keep the
connection active in the NAT table) is to configure a rule in the NAT
router to forward the appropriate incoming packets to the appropriate
system. Then it doesn't matter if the connection gets flushed from
the NAT table.
